| dc.abstract.en | The main scope of the study is ambiguous genes, i.e. genes whose expression is difficult to estimate from the data produced by next-generation sequencing technologies. We focused on the RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) type of experiment performed on the Illumina platform. It is crucial to identify such genes and understand the cause of their difficulty, as these genes may be involved in some diseases. By giving misleading results, they could contribute to a misunderstanding of the cause of certain diseases, which could lead to inappropriate treatment. We thought that the ambiguous genes would be difficult to map because of their complex structure. So we looked at RNA-seq analysis using different mappers to find genes that would have different measurements from the aligners. We were able to identify such genes using a generalized linear model with two factors: mappers and groups introduced by the experiment. A large proportion of ambiguous genes are pseudogenes. High sequence similarity of pseudogenes to functional genes may indicate problems in alignment procedures. In addition, predictive analysis verified the performance of difficult genes in classification. The effectiveness of classifying samples into specific groups was compared, including the expression of difficult and not difficult genes as covariates. In almost all cases considered, ambiguous genes have less predictive power. | |
